Somehow I think these conversations will never end.  If Trout signs an extension, then the narrative will be on how he pissed away a winning legacy staying with the Angels.  If Trout leaves,  the narrative will be how the Angels suck because they lost a once in generation player.

This has turned into a zombie baseball topic......

The first is only true if we never win with him.  Id like to think thats never going to happen.  I am not optimistic about the immediate future as of this moment, well see how the next couple of months shake out but i absolutely believe based on his own statements that if this team isnt moving in the right direction standings wise he will not stay.

After this much time, Anaheim is more Trout's home than Philly or New York. What has Philly done for him?

Even more to the point, hes spent just about all of his adult life out here.

I’m not sure why we need to revisit this topic constantly.  Until Trout signs or goes else where these articles are going to be written.  Stark doesn’t introduce anything new here.

I've literally had one conversation with Mike Trout, and it had to do with the time, the weather and Hank Conger

I'd really love to hear what he had to say about the time.

I'm assuming it was about the band and not the human construct that doesn't exist. I have to think Mike loves Morris Day, as any sensible person does.

Dammit Glen...Morris Day was the only joke I could think to make there.

damn, I knew I should have gone with my original response.

based on the lack of response to my PM Dawn comment a while back, I assumed this pigmently-challenged board wouldn't get it.

Let's recap. Trout could end up in Philly.  Harper could end up in Philly.  Trout and Harper could end up in Philly.  Neither Trout nor Harper could end up in Philly.  Trout could stay in Anaheim.  Harper could join Trout in Anaheim.  Neither Trout nor Harper could end up in Anaheim.  Conclusion - none of us (admittedly) know what either player is thinking and none of us have a real clue what's going to happen. 

Analysis:  This thread is pointless.

Based on this logic everything that isnt a factual transaction, including all discussion of options and possibilities, are moot.
Basically the board itself has no point.

ok.
